There are several reasons to post these links on our individual sites;
* To show our site visitors that we are part of a larger movement
* Search engines like it when similar sites link to each other. By
including the links page we'll all collectively get bumped up in
the search engine results
* Increased web traffic to our sites
* Easy and free to do
Generally speaking this will give us all a stronger web presence which will result in more volunteers, donations and a stronger coop.
I hope to rework the wiki page to be more user friendly.
Peace Rich

Why don't we all simply update this wiki page: http://www.bikecollectives.org/wiki/index.php?title=Community_Bicycle_Organi...
*It makes more sense to have a collaborative way to collect these links than only one website owner able to update them a couple times a year. Rich, why not post your work to here?

Hey All, Thanks to everyone who helped me update the bike collectives links page, we now have close to 150 collectives listed in North America. I will update this list again next fall. Until then I'd like to encourage you all to post these links on your sites. This way we can collectively support each others work. Please pass this on to your webmasters. Three ways to post these links on your site 1. Go to http://CommunityCycles.org/links.html, look at the code and copy and paste the links 2. Visit http://CommunityCycles.org/links_html.html and copy the html and paste into your site 3. Subscribe to the RSS feed http://www.communitycycles.org/index.php?option=com_bca-rss-syndicator&feed_id=1 <http://www.communitycycles.org/index.php?option=com_bca-rss-syndicator&feed_id=1>, if anyone knows how to get this RSS to render as html on other sites please contact me.
